After a 1 hour chilly and windy delay, the race gun sent me into my third half marathon. It was all of the grind that I expected it to be - taking me FOREVER to finish - but I remind myself I finished (2:48). My wonderful husband and elated girls found me just before mile 9 for kisses, which lifted my step quite a bit. My running pals never cease to amaze me -- and they too gave me the strength I needed to press on because I knew they were waiting on me, and w/out me they couldn't go eat at Iron Cactus yummy Sunday brunch... ha, ha. Mary 1:51:42, Kelly 2:04:49 & Chris 2:08:44 -- Mary's just a rocket, Kelly's personal best and also 3rd half, and Chris a 1st timer! Now you know she has to try for sub 2...
